Thermodynamics Question 377
Question: The amount of work done in an adiabatic expansion from temperature T to $ T _{1} $ is
Options:
A) $ R(T-T _{1}) $
B) $ \frac{R}{\gamma -1}(T-T _{1}) $
C) RT
D) $ R(T-T _{1})(\gamma -1) $
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
[b] $ W _{adi}=\frac{R}{\gamma -1}(T _{i}-T _{f})=\frac{R}{\gamma -1}(T-T _{1}) $
